things that are gone

Yea, I know.

In 1998 I went back to NYC for a visit. I had lived in "The City" from the summer of 1982, until the summer of 1991. I thought I would never leave NY! Anyhow, on the trip I took a Circle Line Cruise. I took a photo of Manhattan from the boat and my friend took a photo of me on the boat with a view of the Twin Towers. After 9-11, I realized I had these (eerie) negatives. It's as if I had to go there because the result of the trip was to have a photos of myself next to these buildings that were "alive" when I lived in NYC.
